Notice: there are 37 more team season between Cleveland and San Diego, which has the next most.....That is more than 32 of the 46 cities on the list have had to wait overall!
San Fran/Oak/SJ could go from 3 to -0- if the Warriors win.
Chicago could go from 10 to -0- if the Blackhawks win
Tampa Bay could go from 31 to -0- if the Lightning win
Cleveland could go from 143 to -0- if the Cavs win.

San Fran/Oak/SJ goes from 3 to -0- poor poor pitiful fagsticks who had to wait so long.
Chicago goes from 10-0
Tampa Bay goes from 31 to 32
Cleveland goes from 143 to 144......clearly the longest tenure in the history of American Sports.
